Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Bacterial Foodborne Disease: Medical Costs and Productivity Losses [PDF]
Microbial pathogens in food cause an estimated 6.5-33 million cases of human illness and up to 9,000 deaths in the United States each year. Over 40 different foodborne microbial pathogens, including fungi, viruses, parasites, and bacteria, are believed ...

Foodborne Filth and Human Disease
Filth in food comes from the pests that contaminate food--insects, mites, birds, and rodents. Although the presence of minute quantities of filth in food is inevitable, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act prohibits food contamination by filth. The Food and Drug Administration has taken a pragmatic approach in establishing Defect Action Levels ...

A DISTRIBUTIONAL ANALYSIS OF THE COSTS OF FOODBORNE ILLNESS: WHO ULTIMATELY PAYS? [PDF]
This paper traces the economic impact of the costs of foodborne illness on the U.S. economy using a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) framework. Previous estimates of the costs of seven foodborne pathogens are disaggregated by type, and distributed across ...

This study shows how ecological transitions, such as reforestation in Southeast Asia, reshape host–microbe–pathogen dynamics at the wildlife–domestic interface. By integrating long‐read microbiome sequencing, ecological gradients, and statistical and network analysis, we identify host species that disproportionately contribute to pathogen diversity and

A spatiotemporal analysis of Salmonella bacteraemia in Queensland, 2010–2019
Abstract Background Salmonellosis contributes to a significant burden on global healthcare systems. The impact of this foodborne bacterium is more pronounced when the infection is invasive, leading to bacteraemia and sepsis. Studies on invasive salmonellosis are few, and there is an urgent need to understand the spatial distribution of bacteraemia and ...
